Apparently there are patches that > enable it to build, since MSYS2 has Python available. MSYS2 consists of a cygwin like environment and a mingw one. OP is trying to build with mingw. MSYS2 contains a somewhat heavily patched Python in both environments so it's expected that building plain CPython doesn't work. There are plans to upstream smaller non-MSYS2 specific patches but nothing has come of it so far. ---------- nosy: +lazka _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37801> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
